Proxmox has backup stuff for VMs and containers which uses whatever storage youbadd (local, NFS,), and has retention settings. iirc those will always be full backups. for incremental and more, proxmox backup server (PBS VM using backupNAS as destination for me)

The response to the illegal actions then are between the Tesseract dev and law enforcement.
"Was being doxxed" or whatever other claims were made, are not, and never will be, legal justification for starting a cyber attack on anybody.

Right on red could be OKish if majority of drivers followed even a fraction of road laws and made even a half attempt at stopping first, before looking, then finally starting the turn from a complete stop.
Could be, but won't.

The quote was from 2018, and the stated reason for not attending is because it would interrupt tour dates.

Remote workers report the highest well-being in study of 7,700 employees: while those who worked entirely onsite reported the lowest.

Yeah, we're in a similar boat with new CEO, RTO, etc. The increased collaboration is amazing: now instead of video calls, we have in-person in a cubical video calls because our team and department is scattered across multiple physical locations. Additionally, the increased collaboration from non-team "pop-ins" is a much-needed break from doing the work we're brought in to do. Not tomention, all of the systems we manage are now much closer in case of emergency: colocated the same 50+ miles away or "cloud". Maybe /s maybe I'm pro-CEO.

Spez (Reddit CEO) just put out an announcement talking about how they'll verify bots vs humans. Get ready for a wave of new users into the Fediverse pretty soon!
Reply in thread
Mostly reads as labelling bots. The verify bit doesn't seem to actually say the workflow they'll use, but spew some suggestions of how it could be done.
When confirming that there is a human behind an account, we prefer third-party tools that keep a distance between verification and Reddit itself. Any system we use will not expose your real-world identity to Reddit nor your Reddit username or activity to any third party. There are a handful of ways to do this, and I’m sure there will be more. Each have their tradeoffs:
Passkeys (which are well supported by Apple, Google, YubiKey, and various password managers) - These are lightweight, require a human to do something, and don’t require your ID. The tradeoff is that there is no proof of individuality or anything other than “a human probably did something.” Nevertheless, it’s a great starting point.
Third-party biometric services - For example, World ID (yes, the Orb company, though they have non-Orb solutions as well). This technology unlocks proof-of-individual without requiring your name, government ID, or a centralized database. I think the internet needs verification solutions like this, where your account information, usage data, and identity never mix.
Third-party government ID services - In some countries, such as the UK and Australia, governments require us to use these. These are the least secure, least private, and least preferred. When we are forced to do this, we design the integrations so that we never actually see your ID information, so your Reddit data cannot be tied to you.

The Wyden Siren Goes Off Again: We’ll Be “Stunned” By What the NSA Is Doing Under Section 702
I strongly believe that this matter can and should be declassified and that Congress needs to debate it openly before Section 702 is reauthorized. In fact, when it is eventually declassified, the American people will be stunned that it took so long and that Congress has been debating this authority with insufficient information.
Headline dropped a bit. Stunned that it took so long is less interesting.

Scammers hijack websites of Bank of America, Netflix, Microsoft, and more to insert fake phone number | Malwarebytes
Reply in thread
Heres thr gist I got from it: Scammer buys sponsored link, link has extra bits on URL.
Website operator's page loads, but blindly accepts extra info from the clicked URL (for prefilled search terms) and displays that in their own search bar's text input field.
The Apple and HP examples show this decently, the scammer text/phone number is just sitting as search input.
Blame whoever, but seems like this is on the website operators/developers as much as $boogeyManSearchEngine.

Especially considering they install before purchase, unknown to the customer.
Remote control/tracking without the customer's consent sounds like a major liability.
